Among Social Enterprise Chicago’s early initiatives was the Social Enterprise Certificate program co-developed with the University of Illinois at Chicago. Launched in the of Spring 2019, the program ran twice a year, bringing together social entrepreneurs and socially impactful leaders and business students, from the community and beyond, in a highly successful 16-week program.
Now SocEntChi collaborates with partner organizations on incubators, symposiums, and various networking activities throughout the year. Through these activities participants receive coaching, mentorship, and valuable information from the board members and other supporters of mission driven organizations.
SocEntChi will also help the cohort market their businesses and connect them to others in SocEntChi's network.
At the end of every cohort, SocEntChi will facilitate and host a pitch competition.
